CHAPTER 387 IT WAS OVER (PART ONE)

The lean older man kept on running while putting restrictions around him to avoid the attack coming

from his opponent that was chasing him from behind. Without looking back, he could sense that the

Water Kylin was not that far from him because he could feel the mighty strength that radiated out of the

beast. The restrictions that he was releasing were of no use—they were easily broken and suppressed

by the Water Kylin.

"Please, young man, don't kill me! I have no animosity against you. You can kill Waldo, the purple-

robed guy, instead and beat him as long as you like! I will give you no trouble for doing that!" bellowed

the older man as he was catching his breath. He could feel his legs were about to give up from running,

and his heart seemed to leap out of his chest. Seeing that he was about to be caught, with the beast

just a few inches away from him, the thin older man panicked. The beast that kept chasing him made

him feel extremely frightened. Yet he kept on running determined to keep a safe distance away from his

doom.

"Ha! Are you telling me that you don't want to die? Don't think that I didn't hear what you said just now.

You said that you would kill me as soon as you get the fruit! You won't even let an ordinary martial artist

live. Don't you think you deserve to die by just saying those words?" Darren shouted. He was just on

the back of the Water Kylin and didn't even care about the thin older man's begging words. He intended

to teach that older man a lesson that he would surely remember for the rest of his life. After all, Darren

was such an effective teacher, not so kind though, but his teachings would do.

"Die old man! Run for your life!" The Water Kylin roared, while he was stretching his claw to grab the

older man like a small mountain crushed under a gigantic palm.

In an instant, the air around the older man shattered, as if a storm was approaching. As a panicked

response, the thin older man let out countless runes as a shield to resist the attack from the Water

Kylin.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the runes were broken in the blink of an eye, and the claws of the Water Kylin

slapped directly on the thin older man's body.

With the colossal impact, the older man flew in the air and descended like a shooting star that fell from

the sky. The Water Kylin went after him and slapped repeatedly. In his face, in his belly, in his loins,

then his legs, and on his back, the Water Kylin didn't leave any body part untouched. Though the beast

controlled his strength this time, still, the thin older man's bones were all broken—but he was not dead

yet.

"Take him." Seeing the man limping in pain on the ground, Darren instructed the Water Kylin. Following

his master's order, the beast grabbed the older man using his claws, and the three of them flew back.

In the deserted valley, Darren kicked the thin older man and the purple-robed cultivator on the ground.

Their bodies created a loud thud as they hit the ground, and soon enough, both were eating dirt

because the Water Kylin had tossed them harshly and unmindfully on the ground.

"Now, can you give me the Divine Spirit Fruit?" Looking down at both the helpless men, Darren asked

in a stone-cold tone.

"Of course, of course, master! There you go." The thin older man hurriedly gave the Divine Spirit Fruit

to Darren despite being pained mentally and physically. He thought that more pain would be inflicted

upon him if he wouldn't give up the fruit.

"Please don't kill me, master! I beg you! I really don't know that you and Waldo are enemies. I have

nothing to do with what he had done to you! Please believe me!" The thin older man kept begging, and

tears were streaming down his wrinkled face. To Darren's eyes, he was like a child deprived of his

favorite toy.

"Humph! How dare you beg him for your life? What you have done is no better than what I've done!

How many young girls did you rape and kill? How many treasures did you rob from both your kin and

strangers alike? How many innocent people did you kill? Darren, now that you call yourself an honest

and just man why not just kill this old bastard as well? Hahaha!" ranted Waldo while spitting the dirt out

from his bloody mouth. The arrogant rule cultivator knew that he was surely going to die today, so he

told Darren all the evil and even worst things that the thin older man had done. He deemed it wise if the

older man would die with him.

"Shut up, Waldo! You are lying! How dare you to smear my name with all those wrongdoings that you

did yourself!" In between sobs, the thin older man was so angry that blood sputtered out from his

mouth as well.

"I'm completely through with you after all these years, old man! The bad things you have done..."

relented Waldo.

"Shut up! You are both bastards who deserve to die. You don't have to argue anymore. You are both

going to die today anyway!" Darren shouted, interrupting Waldo and the older man's argument.

Darren's voice was cold and stale right now. He didn't care about Waldo and the older man. All he

wanted to do was award them the punishment they both deserved.

"Haha! Kill me first! I am not afraid to die. But before you do it, let me give you a piece of advice. That

older man is using his arcane skill to send a message asking for help. If you don't kill us now, his exclusive content.

followers would be here soon. Though I doubt that they can do any harm to you and your legendary

beast, at least, they might take him away," the purple-robed rule cultivator said with a determined look

on his face. Clearly, he had given up all hopes of saving his life. He knew for sure that Darren would

not allow him to see the break of dawn.

Hearing his words, the thin older man vomited even more blood. He was so furious right now, but sadly

he couldn't do anything about it. What Waldo said made him lose his last chance to live—they were all

true, and he couldn't find any means to contest his words.

"Waldo! You bastard! What a foul mouth you have. I'm going to kill you!" the old man shouted angrily.

With those words from the older man, Darren gave him a malicious glare. Being cautious this time,

Darren scrutinized the man from head to foot. Right then and there, indeed, there was a red rune

shining hidden on his palm.
